Panda Express

I went here at 8:25 pm on a Friday night.
They close at 9:00 so I thought I had plenty of time.
When I walked in there were 2 people in line in front of me, 2 tables had seated customers and a group of 3 came in behind me.
Almost all of their hot pots in the buffet were empty and clean.
I believe 5 choices were left 1 was fried rice which there wasn't enough left to choose as a whole serving so they gave me chow mein to make up the difference.
There was 4 egg rolls left.
The guy in front of me took 2 and I got one.
I wanted cream stuffed won tons they didn't have any cooked.
I felt bad because of the 3 people behind me only one ordered because they didn't have the things they wanted cooked.
When I had asked them if they were making any more food they said no no more tonight.
Why not?? It's an open restaurant they should have food available for their customers to be able to order anything on the menu unless they were out of it especially if requested and it's 35 minutes till closing time.
They chef was still there and 3 other employees were cleaning up the kitchen.
If your business closes at 9 then close at 9 and clean after the store is closed and by all means if customers drive to your business to get something and your chef is still there please cook them what they came for instead of leaving them whatever cold food you have left out in the buffet that looked like it had been there long enough.
The way this place handled it makes me not want to return.

Hello, The Chinese female manager should pay attention to the issue of food running out.
The fried noodles were very crumbly. Thank you

This particular Panda Express location is ok, not above average. Ordered 2 items with fried rice and noodle, the serving for entree portion is bad, I had to order more food since I was not given enough portion for my meal. Looks like the serving portion is for kids, not for adult 😟
